It`s not like this is his first time, well, nothing this drastic, but as I can recall the man was a part of several sex scandals. But I guess he is good with money, and that`s the only thing that matters?

It's not the only thing that matters (I know you were being sarcastic) - if he's ok with money but shit with morals, then I'm not sure he's the best person for the job.

now, the question is: can we get him arrested for financial assault as well?
this lowlife staying in a 3k a night hotel room needs to be behind bars. The IMF has become a haven for white collar criminals and scum looking to create two socioeconomic classes: those who can stay in 3k a night hotels and those who stay at motel 6.

There is an instant problem for the Eurozone in that decisions about Greece have to be made right now. The head of the IMF getting arrested is most inconvenient. Yes of course there is a deputy, but there is much speculation that the IMF is going to be looking for a new head, and inevitably a new head will have a new view point. The markets are so feverish right now that this is a problem that they may not shrug off.

Cameron has said that the next head of the IMF should not be a European. The idea is that the part of the globe that is needing bailouts is the EU, and no European can be free from political interest.

I couldn't get your link to work, luka82, but here's a link to the story in the New York Times. I think it's interesting that it was suggested it might be a set-up. What a spectacular way to go down...

Watching the bail application now. He looks a broken man. If this is a honey trap - and there is some reason to think it might be - it is pretty terrible. Of course if he is guilty we all think differently, but at the moment he is an innocent man.

It's a shame to see that happen to anyone, no matter what they've done (imo). You're right, if it's a trap, then it's despicable - and if it isnt, then, it's still despicable, but for a different reason, lol.
